Michigan FINALLY Lands FORMER 5 Star DL Damon Payne!

[@randythesavage1105]

Lets get him to the league

[@MaizeMadMan]

Yessir

[@SmashTheNumbers]

Sam Webb gave us all the dots to connect later in the day... we just needed to connect them.

[@MaizeMadMan]

This‼️

[@MazieandBlueCowboy]

MMM, with the late up date! Nice, good work sir!

[@MaizeMadMan]

Gotta give ppl what they want

[@MazieandBlueCowboy]

@ you Da man!

[@ReadingsbyDom]

Short order indeed! You’re on fire, M3!

[@MaizeMadMan]

Appreciate Dom "The Don" 🤌🏾

[@azteclegalgroup7604]

Demon Pain…. Nasty name for a defensive tackle.

[@MaizeMadMan]

True

[@boxingmaniac5226]

100% facts!

[@wallacerose7499]

Has this former 5 star ⭐️ lived up to expectations? Or looking 👀 for a big payday !

[@MaizeMadMan]

Lol I've never seen so many pocket watchers smh...it wouldn't be YOUR money either way ..but he's here now it's Lou Esposito and those guys' job to get the most out of him period

[@timdepaulis2487]

Well. He played a lot for a good team and DT normally go unnoticed on the stat sheets. So at the very least he is a good rotation piece. We got spoiled with Graham being so disruptive at DT which is not normal.

[@wallacerose7499]

@@MaizeMadMan it’s the principle of no regulation concerning NIL no control or commitment it doesn’t matter whose $ it is !🤦🏿‍♂️

[@boschlosser10]

Yeah but coming home and Lou could change his whole career

[@davidhernandez9985]

Yo Maize, what are our 2025 recruiting and portal pickups? I bet that we have cracked the top 4-5th on both avenues. We lost Derek Meadows and Elijah Griffin, but C-Moore rocked his first recruiting class. Congratulations! May you and the family have an insane Merry Christmas🎅🏻; and Happy Zawaaza🪔. Always, GOBLUE🤘🏼🏆!

[@MaizeMadMan]

Yea it's been decent Merry Christmas to you and your family too

I see a natty or two in the future. Go Blue!

[@MaizeMadMan]

Minimum Thomas!

[@thomasmyers3808]

@ Yes, Sir!

[@anthonydavis4788]

I like the pick up of Payne, but for depth only. I feel like we're getting someone's leftovers from a meal we thought was as good as it smealt initially.

[@MaizeMadMan]

...by this logic aren't ALL the transfer players "leftovers"? 🤔

[@boschlosser10]

I feel like yall continue to not realize Michigan takes the diamonds in the rough and truly polishes them.. graham was a 3 star for crying out loud

[@drego1018]

LFG!

[@MaizeMadMan]

Yessir!

[@di114n2]

So who are the projected starters at defensive tackle

[@daGO_BLUE]

Benny at DT and Grant on the nose...maybe

[@MaizeMadMan]

Benny, Grant

[@di114n2]

@@MaizeMadMan I just can’t see grant coming back . Where he’s projected he’d be making around 15 million on his first contract

[@MaizeMadMan]

@di114n2 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@timdepaulis2487]

Benny and Payne at the moment. If we get the DT from Kentucky he would probably start because he is more of a Kenneth Grant replacement.

[@johnmitchell2700]

I disagree with anyone-especially those who refer to themselves as true Michigan FANS that #79 GRANT should return. He is a late 1st Rounder and worst late 2nd Rounder. HE IS A MICHIGAN MAN and should go fulfill his NFL dreams with his roommate and the #3 pick Graham

[@floyddavid6956]

I agree. If this Michigan man decides to come back for one more year ; I hope Michigan hands him the bag ; otherwise this young man should go ahead go ahead into the league!

[@charleshicks299]

Well, Grant is #78…

[@boxingmaniac5226]

I wouldn't say "He Should Return" but shit if he wants to run it back for one more year then I'm all for it!

[@davidwright1728]

Another year would put him in the top ten of the first round in my opinion he would benefit big time if he runs it back.

[@shanehilliard125]

Grant is #78 bro

[@raymond-c7v]

That was the weirdest situation I’ve ever that’s why he committed because Bryce Underwood is from Belleville Michigan

[@MaizeMadMan]

Yes it was definitely unorthodox

[@raymond-c7v]

@@MaizeMadMan to save the least

[@Rockcity829]

So long as bro coming to work his ass off.

[@MaizeMadMan]

💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@jakeMontejo3272]

He was mid at Bama. Don’t expect too much from him, especially since he’s replacing two all time greats. He’s serviceable though and they need depth.

[@MaizeMadMan]

He the best now we'll get him right...btw only 1 of those DTs has declared

[@boschlosser10]

You don’t know mf’s situations and struggles maybe he was miserable in Bama away from home.. maybe coming home changes his whole perspective.. who have no idea what anyone is going through daily especially division 1 athletes as I know for a fact you weren’t ever one.. I wrestled at Iowa state life was hard and tough my kid also wrestle division one at Oklahoma… you have no fucking idea how hard it is and the daily struggles

[@nelsongn9]

Hey bro wasn’t Jaden Davis a former 5 star? Why don’t they just play him

[@davesnothere8859]

he ended up lower and is working through some stuff.

[@thewu910]

Ask him and his parents…

[@MaizeMadMan]

Yes he was i too am confused about him not playing. That said there was some footage that was released of a practice session and his form is nasty 🤢 work

[@nelsongn9]

@ oh dam…

[@AsianPoshDorene]

Hey M3!

[@MaizeMadMan]

The one & ONLY Posh 👋🏾 Ladies & Gentlemen a Superstar is in our midst!!

[@ballinwitac6090]

Tancario Davis Deuce Robinson Justice Haynes 2 more defensive lineman Zachari Branch 2 more offensive linemen a Linebacker and lets get Rod Moore back This would be a hell of a team in 2025 and dare I say a team that could play Oregon in the Big 10 tile game

[@boschlosser10]

Duce ain’t happening he’s going home to ASU.. Haynes is a toss up and Davis will be a tough get.. Branch also will be tough we will see

[@MaizeMadMan]

Not a bad wish list

[@MaizeMadMan]

Yea

[@SnowDaulphin]

@@boschlosser10 yes unfortunately no dice on Duce.

[@ichiganade2071]

Can we stop with the "Former 5 star" he's a 3 star at best. But we love those 3 stars that have 5 star potential. Nobody develops this big boys like michigan and it's proven!

[@MaizeMadMan]

Why would we stop? No lies were told 🤫

[@ichiganade2071]

@MaizeMadMan that's true. Just don't like the ove hype.. Lions and Wolverines both. We strive as under dawgs. It's in our DNA. Hope we can keep that pissed off chip and attitude moving forward. But what a time to be alive as a real Michigan and Lions fan. If you weren't alive when Tupac was then you don't count lol

@MaizeMadMan everything may come out but there was some communication or some type of dialog issue lol. It doesn't look good. Hope we don't have UF incident on our hands lol.
